Services Offered
All weddings come with two photographers. My wedding style is a mixture of documentary, fine art, and traditional. My top notch wedding photos show vibrant colors with powerful lighting. I studied art and photography at The Corcoran. What art school taught is the calssics. I learned how to pose you at the most flattering angles to get those amazing style shots. With every wedding my goal is to make you look like a magazine model no matter the age or weight. What art school did well was teach art. But, lighting is the heart of professional photography. Hacing graduated top in my class at the Corcoran, I was chosen to accompany a loacally well-known National Georgraphic photographer, Richard Nowitz, on travel assigments around the country. I worked for Richard for five years before opening my own photography business.

We absolutely loved working with Steve Whysall for both our engagement photo shoot and our wedding. Steve is open, honest and encourages couples to meet with him beforehand to see ...
if it's a good fit. Having a good relationship with your photographer is vital to getting the memories you want captured. Steve prefers to do more artistic photographs rather than your standard wedding posed pictures. If you want standard group shots makes sure to provide a list and remember what pictures you want- in the craziness of the day we forgot to get pictures with our entire immediate families- we have pictures with our parents, just not with them and our siblings. However, the couple portraits we have are amazing- be open to climbing onto trucks or walking through the woods barefoot! Have an open mind and let Steve's artistry take over you won't be disappointed. In terms of pricing he is comparable to other photographers, we really like that we have joint copyright and own all of our engagement and wedding photos. Def. take advantage of the engagement photo shoot- it gets you comfortable with Steve's style and if you've never taken professional pictures before, it familiarizes you with how to take photos before the big day. We loved working with Steve and absolutely recommend working with him for your wedding or special occasion.
Steve and his photography partner, Patrick, were a great team. We had a small-ish wedding (approx 50 guests), so Steve had a less expensive option for us, which was incredibly hel...
pful. We met Steve twice before the wedding to develop rapport (something he recommended) before the big day. It really did help. He provided the digital images with edits in about one week. Guests were very impressed with his work. He uses interesting angles--truly an artist--and showed us in our best light. There were some issues with the shadowing in outdoor photos, but our wedding was at night.
